Before FocusCFO

Prior to FocusCFO, Jeffrey built a broad financial leadership background as a CFO and Director of Mergers & Acquisitions across a wide range of industries, including services, engineering, construction, healthcare, life sciences, aerospace manufacturing, insurance, and investment brokerages. Along the way, he built a shared services operation from the ground up, led organizations through audits with no major adjustments, and helped an SMB turn sustained losses into profitability. Those experiences reinforced a core belief that strong businesses are built by strong teams—through teaching, mentoring, and collaboration rather than top-down direction. Today, that perspective shapes how Jeffrey partners with growing small and mid-sized businesses, helping owners align people, numbers, and strategy to create lasting, transferable value.
